On September 11,2001 I was at my home. As I awoke for the day and looked at the television I became a witness to the most tragic event I have ever witnessed. I seen the World Trade Centers innocently be "bombed" in a sick display of pride from another country. Innocent people perishing in front of my eyes. As I sat there and watched this horible tragidy I cried for the innocent lives that have been lost. And for the familys of all the victims. I could not believe my eyes. I could not believe that some where in the world people thought that this was a display of "pride" and that there "form" of GOD would except this. Knowing deep in my heart that this is not right. I turned to my family , hugged my children, and my husband , called other family members and morned for the other family members and victims. I watched all the events unfold over the next year and prayed to GOD above that this would not happen again. I placed all my fears in GODS hands and believed in the almighty power above. To this day I still cry when I think of all the familys that prematurely lost loved ones in this selfish act of terrorism. To all, I have to say, GOD bless all, and GOD bless America!!!!
Your fellow American
GOD BLESS US ALL!!!
